moving from Europe

[Fabfiles]

Hi guys!

I'm moving in SA from Europe.
But I'm seeing that in SA you have some ADSL problems!
It's true?
Is true that you have a data cap?
What is the situation? There is a free cap and fast adsl connection?
Whay about youtube???

Thanks!

 

[phiber]

Hahahaha, welcome to internet hell The guys here will explain!

 

[TonyA]

Slow, expensive and capped

 

[Fabfiles]

FOR REAL?

i'm surprised you even know what a "cap" is!

it's pretty rough here... but getting better pretty quickly.

 

[Big Bean]

384 uncapped 300 - 500 rand
4meg uncapped unrestricted 1900+
or axxess fiber restricted for 1000

I could be a bit off...

Now I'm in SA. Planning my next steps.
Here I've found that there is this "cap". I mean, what the point having a ADSL connection and having caps?

What about youtube?

getting better? How?
How fast in Cape area is the maximum speed?
Today a guy in the apple re.store in Century City told me that there is that screamer.co.za prov that can give me a fast and cap free connection. Is that true?

 

[Fabfiles]

4meg uncapped 1900+

better than nothing! with how?

by the way THANKS TO EVERYONE for the replys!

Does'nt matter what option you going for, you are in deep sheet

Cape Town -
1. Apply for a 4096kbps ADSL line from Telkom.
2. Then go to either Afrihost, WebAfrica, Axxess or SAOL as your ISP for their uncapped packages.
3. Note the absence of certain other ISPs in pt 2!

For starters and before you made any decisions PM me and I will forward you the name of a company that sell Vaseline in bulk. Nearly all internet users in SA buy and use the product in bulk.
